Yeah, I was prepared to switch to CMRT if SBRT proved unsuitable. I was surprised to have both tests come back high risk. I definitely preferred RT over surgery. I toyed with the idea of disregarding the results and doing RT regardless. It's a new test that's not yet standard of care. But if I did have serious problems as predicted by the test, I'm sure that I would regret ignoring it.

@quaddick Well, we all have to play the cards we are dealt. With all the good modern testing we can at least see most of our cards. Being vulnerable to radiation toxicity is a handicap but you probably had better luck on other issues like not having BRCA2, for example.
